Chapter Summary
No matter what he was thinking, Liu Ning really didn't want to face so many powerful people. He originally thought that after leaving the ancient ruins, he would be among the strongest on this planet, and then he could finally take a break. In the following period, Liu Ning had some other exchanges with the system, such as the strength of the outsiders, how they got there, and whether there were any other good things in the ancient ruins.
After this guy finished speaking, Liu Ning wanted nothing more than to beat him up. Liu Ning didn't have any grand ambitions; he just wanted to be a local tyrant. Wasn't that good enough? For someone like Liu Ning, this was already quite good. Why did this guy have to create so much trouble? Those things held no appeal for him whatever was on his mind. No matter what he was thinking, Liu Ning really didn't want to face so many powerful people. He originally thought that after leaving the ancient ruins, he would be among the strongest on this planet, and then he could finally take a break. No matter what happened in the future, he could handle it. But now, a whole bunch of enemies had appeared.
Although Liu Ning expressed strong opposition, the system also said that there were some things they could help with, but others they couldn't. So, he could only accept his fate. In this situation, if he had any other ideas, he could only pray for God's protection. In the following period, Liu Ning had some other exchanges with the system, such as the strength of the outsiders, how they got there, and whether there were any other good things in the ancient ruins. These were the things Liu Ning most wanted to know, but unfortunately, the system wouldn't help much. It could tell him some things, and it could answer the routine questions, but if he wanted to find treasures, he would have to rely on himself. The system couldn't help him with that; that's just how things are.
Liu Ning found it hard to believe some of the phenomena in the universe. He had always thought that aliens only existed in legends, but now they were so close to him. Liu Ning was speechless. Everything he knew now overturned his understanding of two lifetimes. On Earth in the 21st century, Liu Ning had seen many radio telescopes exploring the entire universe. He never imagined that the universe he knew back then was only a very small region. In that small region, of course, he couldn't find other people. Just how big is the universe? The system gave a definite answer: if you were to travel at more than 10,000 times the speed of light, it would probably take you hundreds of millions of years to travel across the entire universe. That's the size of the universe.
Moreover, the universe is constantly expanding, at a speed exceeding ten thousand times the speed of light. Therefore, it is difficult to imagine just how vast the universe truly is. Even with everything the system knows, it is hard to know what countless races live in this universe. Many of them have never appeared before, only emerging in the last few thousand years. However, their strength is extremely powerful. While they may not be considered the pinnacle races in the universe, it is already quite remarkable that they can possess their own territory. It was precisely because of this that Liu Ning felt a profound sense of frustration after learning all this. He didn't know how to describe it; in any case, knowing more brought him no joy.
Among all the data, Liu Ning saw a name: the Silver Star Empire. This was an empire formed by the Milky Way and several surrounding star systems. Within these star systems, there were approximately hundreds of thousands of planets that could harbor humans. However, Liu Ning was puzzled. Their astronomical telescopes were extremely advanced; why hadn't they seen any humans on those planets? The system's answer was perfectly normal: those telescopes could only observe stars, not planets, because the brightness of stars was far too low. Therefore, it was perfectly normal not to find humans. It was estimated that with future technological advancements, they would be able to discover them—though this advancement might take decades, centuries, or even tens of thousands of years.
The size of planets in the universe varies greatly. Some are about the size of Earth, which should be some of the smallest planets, while others are extremely large, less than 1/10,000th the size of Earth. Such planets are inhabited by large populations, and because of their large numbers, they are extremely powerful. Wars also occur between planets. The Silver Star Empire doesn't care about this; it's more like a hands-off manager. If its various planets are fighting each other, as long as it doesn't affect the safety of the entire planet, they won't interfere. Moreover, they will collect taxes from the victorious side. Liu Ning really didn't know what to say about their management style, but he understood one thing: having more powerful beings is beneficial to the entire planet.
Among all the numbers, Liu Ning realized one thing: his planet was far too weak. Getting involved in the chaos would be detrimental to his side. He understood that if things didn't change, they risked being swallowed up easily. Everyone knew this. Liu Ning needed to do more than just increase his own strength; he needed to increase the strength of the entire planet. Otherwise, the planet might not even exist in future competition. Liu Ning didn't want to concern himself with other people's affairs, but he only had 30 years left. If he didn't expand humanity as a whole, he feared he would suffer greatly in the upcoming war.
While Liu Ning is likely to survive the war, the other humans may not have such a good chance. They are likely to encounter all sorts of situations, and even if Liu Ning survives, he can only become a space wanderer. What is a space wanderer? It's someone who has lost their mother, the planet they were born on. Although they can live on other planets, they always feel like they have no roots. Liu Ning is not like that. It would be a great tragedy for him to become the strongest one day only to find that his birthplace is gone. No strong person would allow such a thing to happen, and it is a very distressing thing.
